Felix not drooling is actually a trait that the Samoyed has due to breeding! They were bred not to drool because the freezing temperatures in Siberia causes dog’s drool to freeze, which can hurt the dog. So the whole reason why sammies smile, is so that they won’t drool! :)

At the beginning of pandemic I got a male samoyed and we are so amused with his antics that we could not contain ourselves to get a female for his companion a couple of years ago. Now we have a pair of mayhem in our home. Never regretted the decision one bit.

We had a Samoyed for about 14 years. He was very sweet. Didn't have a mean bone in his body. We had a second home in the snow and he LOVED being there. He would run off every chance he got!!! He loved to run. He would pull our kids on a sled... He was very beautiful.

My grandparents used to breed & show Samoyeds in New Zealand. They were very well trained, didn't bark inside & only really made a lot of noise when herding their sheep! They can be very, very protective of their home & people - you had to make noise/announce yourself when you went to their house because the dogs would get very growly if they thought strangers were approaching. Sweetest dogs 99% of the time, total goofballs - and the reason I didn't know I was allergic to dogs until my mid-20s! They're hypoallergenic! OH! And! Their fur can be spun into yarn, then knitted. The softest socks EVER.

My sweet Loki did the stepping in front of me once, when the neighbor (who had mental issues) came to the door and yelled at me about something. He didn't growl, but planted himself firmly between us and stared the man down. His dad saved our son from a stray dog that came racing around the corner snarling , he stayed right in front of of him and didn't chase the other dog but stayed on guard. My most favorite breed!

The reason samoyeds barely drool is actually because of their smile! They don't only smile because they are happy, but because it keeps them from drooling :)

You explained my Sammie exactly. Definitely won’t sleep in a dog bed, hard floor is their favourite. ❤️

The best part is the cuteness. Floof

I swear to god, this is the most authentic full of love video about this amazing breed. Well done. Give Felix a big hug from our fluffy family. EDIT: I never take my samoyed on a leash and when ever he runs for other animal or a dog(which he does all the time), I just call him and he stops. It does require of him to use a lot of mental effort but he is a loyal dog.

I'm a 3 time Samoyed owner! Best dog ever! They are so intelligent! Cannot get another right now, to heart broken to loose them they are great souls!- 100% agree with you on your observations!

He's beautiful, and I love the side-eye he gave when taking the socks. Very cheeky. If I were younger, I'd love to have one.

My guy is so suborn, if he doesn’t want to go home he just lies down and rolls over. Wants to sleep in the bed every night, very smart and loves adventures too.

I have been a dog sitter for a Samoyed for a week now and it was the best week I have experienced in my life, they are so friendly so kind dogs there are no words to describe it their fur is so fluffy so nice, I am not used to it with dogs I agreed to guard him because it is expensive in a dog hotel but I will say one thing best week of my life, so much joy I have with samoyed I think I will buy a samoyed I have fallen so in love with samoyed.

I giggled so much. Felix is so handsome! He reminds me of our little girl Samoyed!!! Thank you for this! ❤️

It's so fun to watch all about Felix in one video. 😍😍

I had two Samoyeds and they were the most lovable dogs so friendly to everyone and yes i recognise every trait you mentioned in video x

They are smart,friendly, happy dogs.

Soooo true! They are the best dogs ever🐻‍❄️

Smiled during the whole video ❤️❤️❤️❤️ can wait to have my own Samoyed!!

Many years ago I adopted a Samoyed stray…she was one of the best dogs I ever owned. Second place was my border collie mix

I absolutely love this video!! Also I can't believe how similar Samoyeds are to Westies 😂😂😂 Our Westie dog Sami is very much like Felix, same stubbornness, same independence and he also talks to us, haha! Great job, guys, I can't wait to see your future videos ❤

my grandma used to have samys and during 2ww she would washe and dry the brushed out fur and used it stuff blankets,they were heavier than geese down but duble as warm

Got a 5 year old Sammy since a year now. Left abandoned by her precious owner in Croatia. It's amazing how quick she adapted to a family live. She loves traveling, and explore things. Don't like to take her to inner city too much, with all the attention you get a 100 meters walk can take up to 30 minutes! :) Love your view on the Sammy!

Nice video. I have a samoyed to. It is funny to see how much Felix charactre looks like our Sammy. I really enjoy your posts on Instagram/KZfaq.

Félix es adorable 🥰 y hermoso 😍 Excelente video 👍🏻

You brought me back to happier times.

Thank you so much!! You really help me! 💕💕

Personally, my dog doesn't drink delicately but she gets it all over the place every time for at least 10 feet /3m around and we are teaching her to grab treats more gently as she tends to want to eat fingers with it 😂

My samoyed, Lennie, is the most stubborn dog imagineable 😂 and just so cheeky but he is just so loveable, i love him to pieces. Samoyeds are such a special breed ❤

haha the way the towel was on Felix!😍

Very similar traits - but I've not yet seen the protectiveness. I have a female that's just about to turn 7, and a male that is 6 (both neutered). I've never seen protectiveness from the male as he is actually generally more timid than the female. I've never had to worry about them reacting with strangers, generally more worried about the person than I am with them. They do bark & get excited when they see someone they like though, even indoors. My most difficult training task with them to stop them from jumping up. They don't mean harm by it, but they just want to get closer to someone. Once everything is calm, it's never an issue. The female is super cuddly. To the point where she demands it a lot, and loves to just lay anywhere with you (even the bed) for a few hours. Our male will cuddle with you for a few minutes, and that's about it - otherwise he'll just lay by your feet & be content. He also likes his own personal space more than the female. As for small animals? Oh man - it's the reason I don't unleash mine either. I've just got it trained into them (after years), that cats are OK. Birds, chipmunks, & squirrels though are a favorite of theirs, and both have gotten out of the yard at one point to chase after them.

I just love Felix, so beautiful...have subscribed to his channel too now...Muah love him !

Thank you for this video i really love samoyeds and all dogs and this helped me understand more about them

My Samoyed , she is also gentle. Love her

Such a lucky puppy and such lucky parents. This is a really well made fun video, you guys should've have ton of more subscribers on here!

I absolutely adore my Sammy

100% accurate for my past 2 boys!! 😂 getting a female soon for the first time, very curious to see the difference, aside from the obvious

It's too good❤️

Let me know if you travel to Denmark. I also have a Samoyed (Nora) - which could be amazing to meet up with Felix! :)

He looks like a beautiful and entertaining dog!

very good video❤️ I also love them❤️

your pup is so cute!!

I can relate completely 🤣

Felix!!!!

not me taking screenshots 🥺♥️

Such a cute dog, solidified my want fro one, thank you... reminds me so much of our 14yo siberian husky we sadly lost 2 months ago

Awesome video :-)

Grew up with samoyeds. We ended up with 7 and two half samoyeds.great dogs

New subscriber here from the philippines❤️

I love your channel so much :-D So many similarities with my pup as well lol

A very good dog breed that reminds me of my childhood

I have a samoyed them are the cutest

Felix in KZfaq😍😍 Pawesome

I love these dogs I have several. Save money for grooming and it's worth it.

Wowww my lovely dog

Felix is very cute, im waiting for my samoyed allready 4 years but we have to move out first

I had a big male, Kovic (would not have named him that now) and I loved having a Samoyed companion. You are right he thought he was one big lap dog!!! He was rarely off-lead in open spaces for good reason. Walking from the car to the house he was usually good; we had done it a thousand times! One day he paused and started walking away, I called him, and he stopped and turned to look me and had this look on his face and I knew. Bamm he was outta of there! LOL It took me an hour to catch up while he thought it was a big game in the park 3 blocks away. I finally caught him when he was close and I ran away from him and as he buzzed by me I literally lept onto him as he went by! Whew! He just grinned isn't this fun! What can you say at that point? They are a fun breed, but not for off-lead! I miss him. Thanks, brings back nice memories.

This video is awesome, as are the comments 😊 Thank you!

I have Samoyed boy Casper he’s 2 years old He doesn’t bark much and doesn’t howl at all, he loves attention and also needs a lot of family time and play time so we try to give him that as much as possible He doesn’t like to travel in the car that much so we only take him when necessary, he can stay at home for some time and he doesn’t cause any distractions when he’s alone We also have 4 cats and he’s super friendly with them and very gentle and he doesn’t treat them as toys or prey so he never chases them when they run around. He also adopted this understanding when he sees a cat outside he won’t chase it he just might have a general interest as he’s very friendly. He is extremely friendly to both humans and other animals. He never growls or barks at other and always ready to play and say hello He does shed a lot during seasons and throughout the year , it’s a non stop process. He is also very big, he’s 37 kg last time we weight him and very fluffy, he has enormous mane like a lion so his upper body looks even bigger. Despite of such big size he’s a grown baby and always cuddly , sweet and gentle I honestly cannot say anything bad about this breed if I judge by my dog. Our whole family loves him Wanted to add after completing the video: Casper also very picky eater, he doesn’t eat dry dog food no matter what brand, he doesn’t eat even the best wet dog food unless I hand feed him. So we feed him raw diet and he can also eat cooked meats and chew bones, he loves bones so I get him some bones from the butcher. He never touches our things, like sleepers or our clothes, he knows what are his toys and he only plays with those. He is very obedient but sometimes can have a mind of his own so I train him every day on walks for patience and obedience to listen to my commands and follow them. He needs a lot of active play and exercises so we take him off leash often, he needs at least 20 minutes of active play and running a day. So I train him not to run away from me, stay on a spot if I tell him without a leash even if I walk away, not to approach other dogs unless I allow, walk next to me without a leash right by my side. He’s very trainable with treats, he loves treats and I give him a treats when he does the right thing and also a lot of praise. I just remembered one things I find very difficult with him- clipping his nails, it’s impossible to clip his nail, I tried myself and with various groomers, he’s just scared when you clip his nail and acts dramatic. So I bought a pet nail grinder and he lets me use that with some encouragement and lots of reassurance as he’s still scared when I touch his nails and paws. Even things like trimming the hair on his paws is difficult as he’s afraid of it. And we never had an accident or hurt him he just doesn’t like it. The rest of the body I can groom however I like, he’s chill with brushing, trimming and baths. And yes one more thing- many times his behind gets dirty after the toilet, he has a soft stool sometimes but even with normal stool the poop stains his fur when travels on the way down. So we have to wash his bum with the garden hose almost every second time after he poops😁 So only those 2 things I find difficult with him

A lot of dog owners don’t understand this breed because they are so friendly, vocal and not boring. My Sammie is a girl, males and females are slightly different. She is very stubborn, will eat anything, but she’s smart and learns quickly as long it’s something fun it’s Abu nice of treats. 😂 She’s so gentle but very vocal, she’s territorial of her boundary, but can never be a guard dog as she loves everyone and only wants attention. She doesn’t smell, an occasional burp, that doesn’t smell and I have never heard her fart 😂 She’s coming up to five in a month and has calmed down but very minor. She is so not patient and will literally be vocal unitl she gets what she wants. Crazy kid but I love her just they way she is. ❤ xxxxx

Samoyed dad to be here. I can't wait to meet my baby girl

Echo is a samoyed with blue eyes and exactly how you have described it in this video, the only difference is that he barely barks. He howls sometimes that’s about it. !

Samoyed the best dog!

Great video! Thanks for sharing How about their traits with furniture in the house, like sofas, wall skirting, cables etc?

Beautiful looking dogs. I have a husky and we accept that dog hair is a food group.

Regarding him apparently loving to run away; we have resorted to attaching GPS tracker to our dogs' collars, mainly for emergencies as we usually walk with them in forest areas, and once they spot something the hunting instinct just kicks in and they are off. At least the tracker helps us find them again. Only one got properly lost once, but that was where the tracker really paid off, as we knew where to look for him.

This video really makes me want my friend to get a samoyed

I have 2 Samoyeds and would have 12 if I had the space! They are the best!

100% accurate on dog beds, by our third Sammy we just gave up and let him sleep by our feet in our bed. Got tired of kicking him out

I have one 😊❤ your pupy is cute 😍

Strongly considering a Sammy for my next pup! I spent a decade with a Malamute and it seems he has many of the Malamute traits but with half the challenges. ;)

we dont have one ... but we want one

Me also have a samoyed and it's funny that my cutie Boy have almost all Charakter traits that are mentioned in the Video. My favourite is stealing socks and being so careful eating Out of a Hand. 😂🥰❤️

😍😍😍😍😍😍😍So gorgeous

all good 👍🏾

Thank you so much for you video, everything you said is sooooooo true and real. This is exactly how mine act like. They are so cute and I wish I could take him everywhere, however, he gets too excited and barks a lot outside, as you mentioned, some people might find it annoying and scary. So I am still trying to overcome this and hope I could take him anywhere like you. I have one question, when you take him on the plane, does he sit with you or he will be in to cargo? Thanks and Felix is super adorable.

5:00 good boy!!

❣❣❣

Y Sammy sleeps with me, doesn't dig and hardly bite on things when a pup. She also catches toys in air. Smart dogs. Sheds 2x a year have to keep them brushed. And yes mine will take off very quick too. I had her chipped. Good luck.😊

I wish we knew we don’t need a dog bed before 😂 Our Samoyed destroyed his beautiful bed because we were to persistent putting it where he sleeps, while he was pulling it away. In a couple of weeks he went out of patience and ripped it into pieces 😂

I guess not all Samoyed are the same. My dog will eat anything. He’ll eat a brick if I gave it to him. He also bit all my fingers off trying to hand feed him. I’m literally typing this with my elbow. I still wouldn’t trade him in for anything.

we have had 5 adults and a littler of seven puppies last year, we currently own three Samoyed's. If you ever come to Ireland you are welcome to meet up with them :) they are very good breed, one of there main purposes was to herd rain dear (most of ours don't go for small pray but when they see dear there gone! And the other and reason we chose this breed in the first place was they were also babysitters ! Never met a more attentive and genteel dog with children their like nana form peter pan! Our first bitch would herd my 4 year old sister away from danger keep here safe/ follow her everywhere. Never hurt here even wen Abby was to rough with her and even bounce dogs twice her size ( I mean literally go chest to chest and bounce them) if they were to rough around Abby. No rough housing the baby on her watch. Never aggressive UNLESS you were a threat to a baby. (tis fair enough!) you can also spin there wool and its something crazy like 80% warmer then sheep's wool!

Ich habe keinen Samoyeden, aber einen Zwergspitz (sieht etwas aus wie Felix in sehr klein :p) und ich kann die Punkte fast alle nachempfinden.

Accurate except for 8 hours alone, I'm on my third Sammy, they can be a little destructive at first when you leave them for long periods of time, but usually when they hit 1, they are fine to be left at home while you work. Never had a probably in 30+ years working and owning Sammies

I recently rehomed a male Red Siberian Husky named Max. Mad Max's muzzle and body are a bit wider than a typical male Husky. So I did a DNA Test. Max is 66.3% Husky, 20% Malamute, 8.4% Samoyed, & 5.3% German Shepherd. So Max is 94.7% Siberian and 5.3% German.

Wir haben auch einen Samojeden. Er pupst nie, er rülpst nur :-D

I think some of the traits mention here might be specific to felix. I seen some samoyed who are not picky with food and extremely friendly that they cannot be relied as a protector

Somoyed: I look like a polar bear but I’m like a cat

The worst thing about a Samoyed is the thousands of pieces your heart breaks into when they cross the Rainbow Bridge.

Dogs bred to act on their own instincts are not stubborn they are independent. He sounds like many of the LGD breeds.

Wow! My dogs personality is so similar to your dog! But the only difference is that my dog is a Akita Inu.

Ours is 85lbs! he is such a tank,

Predivan Samojed

Lol when she said Felix I thought of Felix of stray kids

J'ai l'impression d'entendre parler de ma samoyède ! Par contre, je peux la faire promener sans laisse depuis quelques mois.

9:15 🥺

My samoyed likes his dog bed but also likes to lay around on the floor

Eurasiers are really similar in temperament! (They are part samoyed, so no wonder!)

If you have an older Samoyed male and he starts having trouble walking, try shaving his fur down to the skin, in the area of his rear area/lower back, then apply roll on DMSO that has some aloe vera in it. If there is spinal GOUT, it will cause trouble moving due to pain, DMSO will DISSOLVE the gout! Don't decide to not try it due to the vet nixes it! RIMADYL can cause STROKES!

Love my sammy, Apollo. They’re so gentle and kind. It’s been wonderful
